Passwords & the Bible

According to InTechnology, the ten most common passwords in use right now are:

password{mosimage}

123456

qwerty

abc123

letmein

monkey

myspace1

password1

link182

(your first name)

I hope that you don’t use any of these because it won’t be long till someone uses it in a malicious fashion.

Instead, let me suggest an alternative password schema. A secure password is at least 6-8 characters in length and a combination of letters & numbers.

Why not use your favorite bible references as passwords?

John 3:16 could be ‘jn316’ as your password, or ‘john316’ — but it’d be even better if you went with something like 1 Thessalonians 5:22, which could become ‘1thess522’ — a quite secure password.

And you can even pick out different ones for different categories. Your finance password becomes a passage that deals with money. Your shopping password becomes one that deals with possessions. Your email password is a passage that focuses on the tongue. Well, you get the idea. Don’t overdo it.
